Ingredients
4-5 cups vegetable stock or 4 1/2 cups water with 1/4 tablespoons naturally brewed soy sauce
1 tablespoon butter, divided
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups sliced shiitakes
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 shallots, minced
2 cups sushi rice
1 cup white wine
1/2 bunch chives, cut into 1-inch batons
Small block Parmagiano-Reggiano, for shaving
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Directions
In a large saucepan over high heat, heat vegetable stock until simmering and remove to a heat-proof pitcher or bowl. In same saucepan over medium-high heat, add half of the butter with 1 tablespoon oil and melt. Add shiitakes, season with salt and pepper and saute until soft. Remove sautéed shiitakes to a plate. Add remaining butter and oil and sauté garlic and shallots until soft. Add sushi rice, season and stir to coat rice with oil. Deglaze with white wine and reduce completely.
